Default how does it look?

Hey all. i got my 97 T/A put on the dyno a couple weeks ago just to see what it would do. it's pretty much a factory car except for the 3.73s and a custom computer program. anyway, it put down 237.90 hp and 264.75 ft/lbs. the air/fuel ration was dead on so there weren't any problems. i just wanted to see how it compared to other cars of about the same level. any comments are appreciated. thanks.

Those numbers sound about right. I got 230 hp with a intake in my 97 Z28.

the guy that runs the dyno at the place i went to set a record in his fox at rockingham (chris tuten) and they do a lot of work on mustangs, but i've never heard of it referred to around here a "mustang" dyno. but i'm not sure.

Mustang is a brand that makes dynos. They typically show lower numbers than a Dynojet brand dyno. My numbers were from a dynojet.

His car is an auto with 3.73's. Both will eat up power, so he's doing okay.
